We might want to focus fire on the drake.

Since it gets an attack bonus when it is close to an ally and since we are in a narrow hall where it is going to be difficult to keep it from bunching up with the hobgoblin...might want to wax it first.

Agreed!

[attriel]

Sorry Greebo, it's been a tiring couple days, and since no one else has been labelling minor/move/standard, it seemed like you were specifically telling ME to label it so you didn't have to check, but everyone else they're OK

I realize you were just posting a quick comment while you reinstalled, and I was the one with an action to comment on. Sorry for overreacting

well, technically killing the ally also resolves the issue :o

And moving past that hobo is going to provoke OA's. Although when the drake moves in, Urvi will probably be able to melee it while you guys range it. And until it moves, I'm not sure anyone can really hit it :/

Both good points.

OKay, I'm fine with focusing fire on either!

I came across much more angrily than I intended - I really would like everyone to give me that info - you were just the first person to give me a vague turn report while I was in the middle of dealing with my @#*()$& PC. I am sorry for taking my own frustration with that out on you.

Oh, I'm sure the drake will hurt more so focusing on it is probably a good plan. But until it moves in and quits getting cover from that corner (cover/LoS whichever) maybe blast the hobo, then switch targets once it's more visible?

Honestly, from where we were, I'm not sure anyone but Raj can really see it :o

no dammit, I'm sorry!!!!

And it has cover or complete cover for me. I thought about using a triggered attack, but figured we might as well burn down the Hob we can see and save the drake for later. With luck, I can get them into AoE position.

[Greebo]

no dammit, I'm sorry!!!!

**** YOU! I'M MORE SORRY!!!

[Sagar]

Alright you two.. manhug and let's get going.

[Greebo]

Atty &&/|| Kiir - are we gonna start hearing from Urvi and Lyla directly again?

[Kiir]

Yeah, the short one has just been a bit demanding the past few days, the whole trying to potty train thing and all.

[attriel]

dude, I SAID I was sorry! jeeeez

[Shiz]

Yeah, the short one has just been a bit demanding the past few days, the whole trying to potty train thing and all.

How long has it been? I still thought the kid was about 12 months old...

[Kiir]

He's 26 months old. His sister is 3 months on Sunday.

[attriel]

yaknow, all this pushing hte mobs around is really kindof a nuisance :/ we keep having to chacha around the combat area following the mobs :o

[Greebo]

Hee hee hee.

Have fun.

If I might make 2 recommendations:
1) Concentrate fire on one enemy at a time. If you start on one as a group, stay on it.
2) Shere might want to make room for Raj right now...

[attriel]

Well, THAT certainly worked well :o

But yeah, don't think we need to rest right away, we're still damn near full on surges :o

OTOH, there was that whole conversation about whether we needed to level before going this way, and it's quite possible the GM gave us a break ... but turning back suddenly to go explore another path seems out of character.

decisions decisions

[Greebo]

You could take your existing prisoners back to town, of course, but that puts the remaining prisoners at risk because even now that you've found the castle, it's a minimum 4 hours one way and the route is hardly well marked. You'll have to find it AGAIN on the way back.

[Asharad]

Yeah, on one hand we probably should level in order to take on whats next.

On the other hand, maybe she's just in the next room. We'd be best off going and trying to get her (that's why we are here) and then beating feet for the exit.

I'm inclined to say lets get to the next area and see.

[Greebo]

Just confirming - the party intended just to leave the equipment on the corpses unless otherwise specified, is that correct?

[Sagar]

I would say that is correct.

[attriel]

the tension is killing me!

[Greebo]

Sorry guys, no update tonight, been a hell of a day both with outside work and computer work

[attriel]

no worries. It's the weekend anyway
